[QUOTE="TeddyTottie, post: 2431628, member: 519030"] Sounds like you have been mostly attempting the conventional diet advice, which is really not suitable for those with T2. If I was in your position (well, barring the heart disease, I absolutely was) I would change to a very low carb diet first. I went keto and lost over 4 stone in 6 months without counting calories, you could well experience the same type of result. It is not an easy option at first but it quickly becomes normal and I feel much better in almost every single way you can imagine. I know someone who had bariatric surgery and although they lost weight, they did not address their appalling diet and poor relationship with food. They just ended up eating the same stuff in small doses, and ruined their natural enjoyment of meals for ever. Not something I personally would contemplate without exhausting other options first. However if you are determined then you need to ask your GP if s/he thinks you are suitable candidate. [/QUOTE]
